Warm
rain washed over her body, making her hair wet. Something she could only
imagine. It pattered over her like silk, soft, wet. Her body was slick as
she ran her hands over her skin.
The
sensation caused her pussy to become wet. It turned her on letting
something so natural and pure run over her.
Opening
her eyes, she saw that the rain was purple and blue as it washed over the
scarred landscape of the Earth. It caused the cracks to seam together, like
a needle to a thread.
Then
she sensed him, a dream lover, turning she saw him standing through the
downpour. His eyes were dark and glowing as he stared at her. She wanted
him. She wanted him in the rain.
The
man stepped forward. His eyes were pitch black as
he approached her. The water was running in rivulets over his body. There
was a crack of thunder and a bolt of lightning that seemed to cause his
eyes to glow like a dark fire.
Moving
like quicksilver, he pressed his body against hers. He ran his fingers over
her cheeks before his hard strong hands ran through her silken hair,
pulling her forward so that he could capture her lips with his mouth. His
hot, wet tongue invaded her mouth, entwining with hers as he kissed her
deeply.
Moaning,
she pressed her body tighter against his, the water making their skin
slick. She could feel his cock hard against her belly and she could feel
her cream between her thighs. His body was hard, hot and taut, she wanted
him so badly. She wanted to fuck him.

She’d
been here for three weeks now and the place constantly surprised her. Her
current obsession, the man looking so intently in her direction. It turned
out Irav was not unique at all. This man, the one
who stared at her with those vivid blue eyes, made any fantasies of Irav Tok disappear like a
vapor. What was it in the air around here that produced such men? Real,
flesh and blood men, not designed in some
avatar-specialty lab. Those eyes were the most brilliant shade of blue,
such a vibrant color that she wondered if they were a gene-alt. But he just
didn’t seem the type, as serious and grave as his expression always
appeared.
In
fact, he wasn’t her type at all, although her body was screaming the
opposite—her nipples tight, her pupils dilated, her pussy slick in
readiness. He was a redhead! She hated red hair. But really, on him it
worked. His skin was a warm, rich brown tinged with red, like the weathered
limestone in the deserts of old Earth or the dry, dusty plains left in the
non-terraformed reserves on Mars. His hair was
just a shade lighter, more a deep rust than brown. His arms were things of
beauty and she resented the thin sleeveless shirt that covered his chest
from her perusal. She wondered how his skin would taste if she ran
her tongue across the muscles of that chest—if his stomach would flutter as
her mouth descended, if his cock would be warm and hard in her mouth and
what his scent would be like in her nostrils. She didn’t want to rush off
to make a simulation of this man. She wanted him, real and live and
entwined with her in hot sweaty glory.
For
Infinity’s sake! The man was looking right at her. He was still some five metras away and she knew that these floor-to-ceiling
windows were one way, that it was impossible to
see inside the crylic window from that bench. But
his eyes perused the length of her body, making her swallow nervously and
bite the fullness of her lower lip. Her folds felt heavy and full, her
temperature seemed to soar and she could feel her phytoderm
ripple in an effort to harness the sudden hormonal changes into a store of
energy. Ah, to be a Phytos, ever-mindful of
limited resources. It was then that she noticed her hand pressed against
the crylic of the window—the skin that was
quickly becoming the same shade of deep red-brown as the man watching her
from outside. The color crept down her arm and had almost made it past her
elbow before she wrenched her hand away from the window and shook it vigorously, forcing it back to the green it had been a
moment before. She hadn’t changed her phytodermis
unconsciously since she’d been a teenager! What in Infinity was happening
to her?
“Happy to be home, Galita Serhadze?” A voice was
speaking in her mind again but this voice was gravelly and utterly human. A
voice full of challenge and temptation. “Is this finally home?”
She
wanted to scream back but she didn’t know what the hell he was asking, much
less what she should answer. And she knew, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that
the voice belonged to the man sitting outside—well, he had been sitting
outside. While she had been raging internally, trying frantically to find
the hole in her firewalls and wireless comm that
he’d exploited to access her audio receptors, he’d simply walked away. Damn
that infuriating man, Mardon Kaen.
And damn her for wanting him.
If a
woman was finally, finally going to pick a man to be her first bio-partner
for sex, why did the guy have to be so damn mysterious!
Then
she was overcome by an image so strong she sank to her knees right there in
the public hallway, lost to everything but sensation.
Was
she in the Tessnet? Was she asleep? Did it matter
when she felt like this? Her skin was electrified—every nerve ending was
receiving nothing but bliss. Behind her knee, it was the whisper of a hot
breath. Along the curve of her breast, the lightest teasing touch of a single finger. On the inside of her thigh,
the firm but gentle bite of teeth. Her breath came in shuddering gasps and
her eyes darted around the smooth brilliance surrounding her. She was
trapped in the warm heart of a sunset, light she couldn’t block out even
when she closed her eyes. It shone within her, through her, not letting her
hide anymore from her own insecurities, her own sexuality.

Shock
whipped through her system and she was so stunned she could only nod mutely
when James swept Trish off to the dance floor. Something unexplainable was
happening to her and it had been going on for days. It had begun as little
things that she’d thought were just weird premonitions. Like James coming
up behind Trish when he had. She’d seen it in her mind before it
happened. And her body. Something bizarre was going on. Every beat of the
music made her blood heat and the very core of her body pulse to a pagan
tempo. Restlessly, she squirmed in her chair and sent her gaze wildly
around the room. Her panties were drenched. Mahara
rubbed her thighs together hoping against hope to stem the rising tide.
Sexual excitement rose up like a great beast to center in her pussy, deep
and pulsing, a release longing to break free. She wanted to grab the
nearest man and throw him to the floor and take him like an animal.
Every
tiny hair on the back of her neck rose to attention and Mahara’s
heart thumped sharply in her chest. The turquoise stone in her ring heated
against the finger on her right hand where she wore it. Lifting her
glasses, she settled them back on her nose but she didn’t need them any
longer and wearing them was just stupid. A visit to her eye doctor would
only tell her what she already knew. Her vision seemed to have perfected
itself overnight. Impossible. Through the lenses, the ring went fuzzy. Mahara huffed a breath and
yanked them off, shoved them in her purse just as their waitress came up.
“Drink?”
“Um,
no. But could you do me a favor?”
“Sure.”
Mahara
glanced toward the dance floor. “Could you tell my friend that I have to
take off?”
“No problem.”
Shakily,
she got to her feet and slung the strap of her purse over her shoulder
intending to walk the few blocks to her downtown apartment. The feeling of
being stalked hit her in a giant wave and she felt her knees start to
buckle but she caught herself on the edge of the table. Suddenly, a huge
hand wrapped around her elbow to steady her and she looked up to see her
boss, the great Titus Declan staring down at her.
She’d
never seen or known a more devastating man. Big, brawny, ripped with
muscle, he looked like a Viking bent on plunder with that
longer-than-fashionable black hair and weird golden eyes. But he was her
boss. She barely knew him. Suddenly, she blinked. “Mr. Declan.”
“Titus.”
“Um.
Hi.”
“Let
me help you.”
Mahara
felt her legs turn to rubber. The warmth of his touch seeped through the
cotton of her blouse and a wave of longing, of heat swept her. The ring
seemed to vibrate against her hand. Wetness, created by an awful lust,
drenched her, seeped from her core. She wanted sex. Craved it. Oh God! She
was in big trouble and didn’t know what to do about it. Tears filled her
eyes as she stared up at him. “Help me.”
“Come
on.”
Without
another word, he put his arm around her and drew her close to his body. She
had the sudden insane urge to sink into him and crawl up the all that brawn
and take his mouth. She wanted his cock soothing the awful ache in her
pussy. His smell was intoxicating. Mahara felt
her heart thump wildly in her chest. “I-I think someone put something in my
drink,” she managed.
He
only tightened his grip. His hand skimmed her arm and a shiver followed in
its wake. Sweat beaded her forehead. When they reached the entrance to the
club, he drew her to the brick wall near the front door. Neon white from
the overhead sign splashed light intermittently over his feral features.
The front of his shirt grazed her nipples and she gasped at the feel of the
firm muscles beneath the fabric. Pleasure-pain, wicked sensation, made her
moan.
“Shh.”
“What’s
wrong with me?” Mahara gripped his sides and
stared up at him. “I’m so embarrassed.”
“Don’t
be. All will be clear soon.”
“I
don’t understand.”
He pressed his lips to her forehead as he replied. “Soon.
You’ll understand soon.”
